Washington Undersecretary of War Robert P Patterson told a Senate committee that while defense production has advanced, total warfare in Europe demands far more munition output. He reviewed the army expansion for the year ending June 24 and forecast greater use of peacetime industry for defense, noting only about 15 percent of U S productive effort now goes to defense and warning of shifts away from civilian goods as production reallocates to military needs.
